Mumbai: ‘Manikarnika’ actress Kangana Ranaut has been quite outspoken about nepotism and the elite gangs of Bollywood post Sushant Singh Rajput’s demise.
She targeted the privileged club of the industry and held them responsible for Sushant’s mental illness and tragic demise.
Now, in an exclusive interview with Arnab Goswami on the news show ‘The Nation Wants To Know’, Kangana slammed the Mumbai police for not summoning four Bollywood bigwigs namely Aditya Chopra, Karan Johar, Mahesh Bhatt and Rajeev Masand in Sushant’s suicide case.
“I am not saying that anyone wanted Sushant to die, but definitely doomed. These people are emotional vultures. They want to see people lynch themselves. To date, Mahesh Bhatt is selling Parveen Babi’s illness in so many versions through his films. Why is Mumbai Police not summoning – Aditya Chopra, Mahesh Bhatt, Karan Johar, Rajeev Masand?,” questioned Kangana.
Calling the investigation by Mumbai Police a sham, she said, “Sushant’s family shouldn’t be harassed because these people are too powerful. These people aren’t even summoned. Mumbai Police investigation is a complete sham. I said no to Bhansali’s Padmaavat but he hasn’t done anything vengeful. He doesn’t gang up on anyone but he’s being summoned. Shekhar Kapur, a God-like figure in the industry, is being summoned.”
“There will be articles that will make me look like a mad person after this, I know,” she added.
Sushant Singh Rajput was found hanging at his Bandra residence on June 14. He was reportedly suffering from clinical depression and was undergoing treatment for it.
However, speculation is rife that the actor has been murdered and well-wishers are demanding a CBI probe into the death.
